I truly loved my time in Barbados and reall7 enjoyed the tradewind that were present for most of my stay. Some basci facts about Barbados are:

Barbados has over 65 miles of gorgeous beaches. There are coral reefs with sunken ships for snorkeling and scuba diving enthusiasts. There are beautiful golf courses and hiking trails. The National sport is Polo. They also have the Mount Gay Rum distillery with tours and The Caribbean Cigar Company.

One of my favorite things about Barbados was how clean and beautiful the entire island is. The Barbadians are very friendly and helpful. Barbados has a very high literacy rate and standard of living. And last but not least, my resort-The Crane. Not only was it beautiful, but I had my own washer and dryer in my suite!

One of our days in Barbados was spent visiting some of their Historical sights, and they have many. We went to the Garrison Historic District (A Unesco World Heritage Site) and saw the changing of the guards and visited the house George Washington stayed in for 6 weeks during 1751as a young man visiting his sick brother. It was Washington’s only trip outside the continental US. Then we went and saw the garrison itself, St Annes Garrison built by the British in 1789. In November of 1966, when Barbados achieved its full Independence from Britain the Garrison raised the Barbados Flag. They have a very large collection of historical cannons preserved at the fort.

On another day we went to the Barbados Concorde Experience, which frankly I wasn’t too excited about. But I was wrong. In addition to having the original jet, (that flew from London to Barbados) all set up to tour, they also had a mockup of the waiting lounge and the cockpit. I was both educational and fun. That same day, a small group of us went to Harrisons Cave. Another awe inspiring excursion. You ride down into these massive caverns, covered with stalagmites and stalactites that are breathtaking, little rivers and pools dotting the areas. While on the tour they explain how the island was formed, and where their water supply comes from.

That night we went to Oistins fish Fry. Every kind of food under the sun, live bands, with dance floors set up and all types of local crafts, jewelry and toys for sale in little booths. For more upscale restaurants and clubs, you can’t go wrong with St Lawrence Gap. There are also some awesome shopping opportunities on Barbados.

There truly is something for everyone in the family on this Island. There are some all inclusive resorts here and some adults only resorts too, As a matter of fact, Barbados is the location of the newest Sandals resort!

Wow! Sharon has once again been selected to attend a unique educational and networking event in Mexico, giving her the opportunity to learn even more about the exciting destination in Mexico- the Riviera Maya. She will be staying at the Moon Palace Resort. The activities will include an exceptional educational program coupled with meetings with representatives of various Mexican destinations and resorts. What an awesome opportunity for Sharon to see all that is new and exciting in this destination so she can share it all with her clients!

The 15 islands of the Cooks lie halfway between New Zealand and Hawaii in the South Pacific, scattered across 2.2 million square kilometres of a seductive, sensual ocean. Boasting rare beauty, an idyllic climate, warm welcoming people and a pace of life unsurpassed for peace. The Cook Islands is an Island Paradise shrouded in traditions and legends handed down from generation to generation since the arrival of the Polynesians - believed to be around 800AD. The Northern Group of islanders are thought to be from Samoa and Tonga and the Southern Group largely from the Society Islands and the Marquesas; and are part of what was believed to be the last great wave of Polynesian migration from Asia, which began as far back as 1500BC.

It was also around 800 to 1000AD that Raiatea in the Society Islands became established as the centre of culture and religion in the Pacific and dispatched voyagers to Hawaii, the Tuamotu Archipelago and also the Cooks, to rule over the islands. It was they who brought the religion, cultural traditions, medicine and the language – which was Maori.

Indulge in the pleasure of Pacific food – listen to the strums of the ukulele, the beat of the drums or swing with the sway of dancing hips. Discover the great outdoors and fish, snorkel, dive, paddle and swim in a brilliant blue sea.
Climb the magnificent peaks lush with native vegetations and alive with song birds. Or simply stroll through the pearly sands and stop awhile to look at the twinkling sunbeams on a white crested reef.

LeBlanc-Cancun Mexico

LeBlanc Resort and Spa in Cancun is one of the most awesome resorts I have ever stayed at. The efficient, friendly, service began the moment I stepped into the front lobby, and continued throughout my stay. On my first day there, the Butler asked what type of beverages and snacks I preferred, he then made sure my room was stocked with them very day of my stay. Every time I stepped out of my room, he called the elevator and had it waiting for me. Everything, from the luxurious surroundings to the music the resort plays was meant to make my stay the most relaxing, stress free and pampered vist possible. The beach is beautiful, the resort is right on the Caribbean. LeBlanc has a pool concierge at all of the pools that will bring you any beverage you could hope for in addition to snacks, water misters and cool towels for your face. Each of the 5 restaurants served a delicious variety of choices. I definitely highly recommend this resort to my clients, and anyone who wants to experience superior accommodations and service at a luxury, all inclusive resort.

We traveled to Bahamas to see the Incredible Atlantis Resort and surrounding properties. Atlantis is located on one of 700 islands in the Bahamas called "Paradise Island. We were able to see all the properties on Paradise Islands. The Beach Tower is located on the east side of Atlantis and is the first tower that was built. The Coral Tower is the second tower that was built. Both of these towers are overlooking the water park as well as the blue Caribbean Sea. We stayed at THE ROYAL TOWER; this tower was built third and has the largest aquarium in the world. Atlantis also has a "casino".

One of the newest additions is called "THE COVE" all I can say is WOW, state of the art rooms, Mahdara Spa, art work, bathrooms, pool and most important this resort is adults only. The other newest addition is called "THE REEF," This tower built for families or groups of friends who want to get away but still have the comforts of a condominium in paradise. The amazing Dolphin Encounter is also located in this area of Atlantis, Paradise Island, Bahamas.

All I can say is "Amazing". Atlantis is one of the few resorts that offer a full water park experience. Atlantis has over 20 swimming pools, thrilling water slides, and a lazy river that takes about 45 minutes to complete, a lagoon where you can rent water cycles or small canoes. Atlantis also has some amazing aquariums through out the resort. The best thing about Atlantis whether it is day or night there is always something to see or do.
